The bricks were FREE. Found objects in my ditch.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Wear Avon's Skin So Soft so bugs don't eat you alive..(:
Wear a bandana for sweat, sunglasses to protect eyes, knee cushion for knees, knee high socks and long pants. Bikini top optional. (:
Best time to work on edging a flower bed is after a hearty rainfall. Last night it rained so this morning was perfect. Effortless digging.(:
HAVE A BALL FOLKS!
